These are simply different- in their own class. We ordered these with some heavy towels from Overstock, perhaps because we could not feel either one before purchasing. I thought the heavy ones would be luxurious-heavy. Instead they are like drying off with a cotton bath mat. On the other hand, these make me feel that I am at an opulent Turkish bath. They are fairly light, but lavish, and have their own special weave. An excellent choice & worth every cent of the extra $.
These towels are medium thickness, which I actaully prefer to very thick towels. I find very thick towels hard to use to dry your body and often aren't as absorbent. These are absorbent and did not leave much lint in the drier after the first washing. I expecially like that they do not have a "band" around the bottom. The weave of fabric changes direction to make the accent at the bottom. This is really nice-there is no band to shrink and distort the towels and on the hand towel, you won't be drying your hands on a stiff band!
Looked for organic towel sets all over the interwebs. Happy to find these and based on the good reviews gave them a try. I really like these towels. I thought I would want super thick plush towels but these, although they are not thick, feel really great, have a nice dense texture and absorb like crazy without all the bulk (and long drying time) of the heavyweights. The quality seems very good and they washed up nicely.
I always seek out organically-grown cotton for towels. These are thin, but very absorbent. I like that they are thin because they take less space in the closet. Bath and hand towels have a loop for hanging. They launder nicely. I'm pleased.
I'm shocked at all the excellent reviews, which were the reason I purchased this towel set. The towels are shockingly thin, but even worse, they are undersized. In addition, due to the lack of any trim or decorative stitching, they look exactly like the cheap, throwaway towels you'd be handed at a gym to wipe the sweat from your brow. Even worse, upon drying my hands for the first time, the white bath towel developed a pink discoloration. Unbelieveable. Finally, while I'd be happy to pay more for quality organic towels, these are neither high quality, nor do they come with any certification regarding their organic status. Seriously...I think it's just a ploy to get unsuspecting do-gooders to buy these garbage "Turkish towels." Complete waste - I returned them, but given Overstock's return policy on opened merchadise and deduction of shipping costs (both ways), I suspect I'll get just barely half of my $$$ back. Avoid these like the plague!
LOVE these towels and I am ordering more! Perfect thickness and like that there is not a stiff band to contend with!
I bought two sets of these towels. The gray color doesn't seem to be very absorbent, tho it has a nice quality feel to it. The blue color is a bit more absorbent. They feel very soft when drying oneself but take more time to completely dry. I don't think I would buy them again.
I ordered white. These are thick, but not too thick. Spa quality. I ordered two sets. One bathtowel is slightly off color. Not a big enough problem to send back. Overall--I am glad I ordered these.
A bargain in quality, these towels are large and absorbent. Color is very attractive. I would order these again and probably will!
These towels are not for people who like heavy and thick towels. I, personally, prefer lighter, more absorbent towels that dry in a reasonable time. These towels do exactly that.

Seat Slider
The seat slider is the device that adjusts the seat pan forwards or backwards. It is essentially a ratchet back feature for the seat. The seat slider helps the chair adjust to the user, not vice versa. Its importance to a chair's overall ergonomic nature can be determined by the type of seat cushion in the chair. This feature can help adjust the user so that they are getting full use of the waterfall feature on the front of the seat, as well as provide the user the ability to fit into the contours of the seat comfortably. For taller people, the seat slider is great, as it adjusts the seat to the right depth.
Final Word: If used properly, the seat slider can add more comfort and customize the office chair to the user. Most ergonomic chairs will have this as an additional option. The seat slider in terms of ergonomic benefit is great because it gives the user an additional adjustment, to make their office chair fit their needs.

The London Gazette
The London Gazette is one of the official journals of record of the British government, and the most important among such official journals in the United Kingdom, in which certain statutory notices are required to be published. The London Gazette claims to be the oldest surviving English newspaper and the oldest continuously published newspaper in the UK, having been first published on 7 November 1665 as The Oxford Gazette.[1] This title is also claimed by the Stamford Mercury and Berrow's Worcester Journal, because the Gazette is not a conventional newspaper offering general news coverage. It does not have a large circulation.
Other official newspapers of the UK government are the Edinburgh and Belfast Gazettes, which, apart from reproducing certain materials of nationwide interest published in The London Gazette, also contain publications specific to Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively.
In turn, The London Gazette not only carries notices of UK-wide interest, but those relating specifically to entities or people in England and Wales. However, certain notices that are only of specific interest to Scotland or Northern Ireland are also required to be published in The London Gazette.
The London, Edinburgh and Belfast Gazettes are published by TSO on behalf of Her Majesty's Stationery Office. They are subject to Crown Copyright.
The London Gazette is published each weekday, except for Bank Holidays. Notices for the following, among others, are published:
- Granting of Royal Assent to bills of the Parliament of the United Kingdom or of the Scottish Parliament
- The issuance of writs of election when a vacancy occurs in the House of Commons
- Appointments to certain public offices
- Commissions in the Armed Forces and subsequent promotion of officers
- Corporate and personal insolvency
- Granting of awards of honours and military medals
- Changes of names or of coats of arms
- Royal Proclamations and other Declarations
Her Majesty's Stationery Office has digitised all issues of the Gazette, and these are available online.[2]
The official Gazettes are published by The Stationery Office. The content, apart from insolvency notices, is available in a number of machine-readable formats, including XML (delivery by email/FTP) and XML/RDFa via Atom feed.[3]
The London Gazette was first published as The Oxford Gazette on 7 November 1665. Charles II and the Royal Court had moved to Oxford to escape the Great Plague of London, and courtiers were unwilling to touch, let alone read, London newspapers for fear of contagion. The Gazette was "Published by Authority" by Henry Muddiman, and its first publication is noted by Samuel Pepys in his diary. The King returned to London as the plague dissipated, and the Gazette moved too, with the first issue of The London Gazette (labelled No. 24) being published on 5 February 1666.[4] The Gazette was not a newspaper in the modern sense: it was sent by post to subscribers, not printed for sale to the general public.
In 1812 an officer of The London Gazette named George Reynell established the first advertising agency.[citation needed]
Her Majesty's Stationery Office took over the publication of the Gazette in 1889. Publication of the Gazette was transferred to the private sector, under government supervision, in the 1990s, when HMSO was sold and renamed The Stationery Office.
- In time of war, dispatches from the various conflicts are published in The London Gazette. People referred to are said to have been mentioned in despatches. When members of the armed forces are promoted, and these promotions are published here, the person is said to have been "gazetted".
- Being "gazetted" (or "in the gazette") sometimes also meant having official notice of one's bankruptcy published, as in the classic ten-line poem comparing the stolid tenant farmer of 1722 to the lavishly spending faux-genteel farmers of 1822:[5]
- Man to the plough;
- Wife to the cow;
- Girl to the yarn;
- Boy to the barn;
- And your rent will be netted.
- Man tally-ho;
- Miss piano;
- Wife silk and satin;
- Boy Greek and Latin;
- And you'll all be Gazetted.
The phrase "gazetted fortune hunter" is also probably derived from this. Notices of engagement and marriage were also formerly published in the Gazette.

- Canada Gazette
- The Gazette of India[6]
- Government Gazette of South Africa
- Hong Kong Government Gazette

AS Knights officials scramble to lock in their NRL roster for next season, one of the club's outstanding prospects has slipped through their fingers to sign with Melbourne.
The Newcastle Herald can reveal today that under-20s utility back Kurt Mann signed a two-year deal with the Storm last week, despite a desperate last-ditch attempt from the Knights to retain him.
Mann, who Newcastle signed to a scholarship at 15, is rated a long-term first-grader in the making.
Last season he helped the Knights win the SG Ball (under-18) grand final, before graduating a week later to the National Youth Competition (under-20), in which he scored two tries on debut.
The 19-year-old originally from Longreach represented Queensland last month in the inaugural State of Origin under-20 clash with NSW.
Less than two weeks ago, Knights coach Wayne Bennett referred to a ''bunch of kids'' the club were grooming to come up through the ranks, including Korbin Sims, Will Smith, Robbie Rochow and Mann.
Now the young flyer, who is still eligible for under 20s next season, will have to realise his potential across the border.
''The Knights put an offer in as well, but I've got a bit of family in Melbourne, some uncles and aunties, and it will be good to train and hopefully play with some of the best players in the game,'' Mann said yesterday.
Equally at home in the halves, Mann has played exclusively as fullback this season and said he had no qualms about going to Melbourne, where the presence of superstars Cooper Cronk and Billy Slater could limit his opportunities.
''It will be just good for me to learn from them, I reckon,'' he said.
Mann said his goal was to leave Newcastle with an NYC premiership to his name.
''That's what I've told my coach [Mick Crawley],'' he said.
''I'm still really focused on winning a premiership.''
It is understood several clubs were chasing Mann but Melbourne showed the most interest.
He possibly attracted their attention with a dynamic showing against the Storm under 20s at AAMI Park on March 30, when he scored a try and carried the ball a remarkable 248metres in Newcastle's 36-16 win.

Grape Fool
Author Notes: Adapted from the recipe for Grapes with Brown Sugar and Sour Cream in James Beard's American Cookery and inspired by my dunking a grape directly into the container of sour cream, then into the sugar bowl, and popping it right into my mouth. This is way more classy. - mrslarkin
Serves 4
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup sour cream (full fat)
- 2 cups red or white seedless grapes, chilled
- 4 tablespoons turbinado sugar, or light brown sugar
- Whip the cream to stiff peaks. Careful; don't make butter. Gently fold into the sour cream. Chill.
- Halve some, or all, of the grapes. Elegantly layer the ingredients into pretty glasses. Alternatively, divvy up the grapes into serving bowls, spoon the cream on top and sprinkle with turbinado.

Neighborhood sushi joint that is worth the drive across town. Put yourself in the sushi chefs hands to get the best and freshest. Attentive service.
Some of the best sushi available in town, if you can get in!~
With all the hallmarks of a great fish house: impeccable standards and exquisite craftsmanship, Kisaku shines!
Kisaku doesn't live up to the hype – I have been to Kisaku several years ago and enjoyed it. I also have heard a lot of great things recently about Kisaku. Sadly, our experience was not a good one for several reasons.
When we called to make reservations, the waitress made it sound like the tables in the 'front of the restaurant' and the sushi bar seats that were available (by the post) were not the best so she directed us to the more intimate back area. We arrived and the worst places in the restaurant were in the back. Never sit back there.
We ordered a wide selection sushi nigiri and rolls. The Spanish Mackerel was wonderful but the rest was ofmarginal quality. Every sushi order used rice that seemed like it had been out in the open for awhile - cool and dried out. It was like the rice balls were made early in the day so they could meet the Friday rush. If you don't have good rice, you can't have good sushi.
I am being generous to say it was a two star experience.
Kisaku is awesome – Kisaku is amazing. I've gone at least once a week since it opened. I highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar. Nakano-san and Shimi always come up with really creative things, and all the food is always amazing. Take a minute to ask what's fresh, what's in season, and what you just absolutely must try. Definitely take their suggestions and be adventurous.
Oysters on half shells are a must to begin the meal, and if Aji Tataki is up on the specials board, you're in for a treat. In terms of cooked food, the tofu dengaku (fried tofu in red miso sauce) is sublime, and they the best calamari I have ever had in the country, no joke.
Also, either make reservations or come at less crowded times (it's easier to get in earlier, especially on week days).
Great Variety – I have been to Kisaku a few times now and every experience is different. There is always a great variety of fresh seafood and the servers are very knowledgeable about the menu. I was a bit of a novice on my first visit and I was directed towards a few simple rolls that I really enjoyed. Be careful because it can get busy at times!
Best sushi north of the bridges – Okay, I'll admit it, Kisaku isn't the "quickest" restaurant around. (That's the only reason I didn't give a full 5 stars.) You might have to wait for a table, but there's a reason for that, and that reason is because people know good sushi when they find it, and nobody wants to leave. If you're looking for some fast-food style, grab-n-go sushi, then get out of the way, head on down to Blue-C or some other "joint" and grab some hour-old fish off the fish train.
BUT - If you're prepared to enjoy some sushi like a gentleman (or lady, as the case may be), then Kisaku is a fine choice. There's hustle, there's bustle, there's an energy present, and the fish is prepared with care and presented with flourish. On the rare occasions that it's calm, there is a quiet, refined elegance to the interior, but when it's busy (as it often is), there is a kinetic feeling to Kisaku that makes the dining experience contagiously exciting. Itadakimasu!
More like Ki-suck-u – I have been to this restaurant three times, but only eaten there once. Why? Because the last two times I've been there, it's taken 5-10 minutes just to be acknowledged by the host, who is too busy working the phones to talk to the actual customers in the restaurant. After finally talking to us, the wait for a table (the first time) was too long and we went elsewhere. Last night, we'd planned ahead and made a reservation. We arrived at our appointed time, and after waiting the mandatory 5 minutes to get the host's attention, she told us that, although there were two open seats at the sushi bar (where we'd reserved spots), those open seats were being held for someone arriving 15 minutes later, and that we'd have to wait for the seats they'd allocated to us, which were still occupied.
Don't reward this kind of stupidity and bad service. I admit that their food is good; that's why I gave them a second chance. I won't make that mistake again.
Sushi? No. – Disappointed. I was a fan of this restaurant but last night I went there with a group of mix Japanese and Americans, the sushi they served was worse than Kaiten sushi. Fish was king of old.
But when I passed some Japanese people sitting at the counter, the sushi they are eating looks very good.
Does this happen because we were a big group? Or they though we were all Americans who do not know the difference of best sushi and so-so sushi. The service was great and so was the desert though.
Amazing sushi! – This was a great sushi joint! We tried the chef's choice sashimi, but nigiri style. All I can say is DAMN! I recommend the chefs choose your sushi, cuz it is the bomb. The service was less than spectacular, but if you order at the right times you'll be good. The house sake is only $6 for a large carafe. The end bill for 4 was $175, and we were extravagant. ENJOY.
The best sushi in Seattle – I love sushi, and I eat it all the time, and I really do think this delivers for the freshest, tastiest cuts without any of the attitude of those downtown places. Sure, you pay a bit more than some other places, but I really appreciate knowing that everything is going to be great. I like the agedashi tofu appetizer, it's a little bit crunchy and in a great broth. I also like some of their rolls, like the Green Lake roll, and their version of the caterpillar roll.
Sushi okay, but dessert was better – I went there for a girlfriends birthday and we had reservations at 6:30pm, but we had to be out by 8pm since another reservation was already made. basically we were rushed to order and rushed to leave by the time we were done with our food. the waitress was pretty much pushing us out. there was no time to really do anything. we ordered the chef's special and it really isn't that great compared to places like Tsukushinbo in international district or Ototo sushi. it used to be better, but over the best two years its not all that great. the dessert was fantastic though. you should definately order the desserts. the service was so poor that i dont think i'll be going back at all. although there is a japanese bakery near by and they have some pretty good bakery goods that you might want to take a look at.
Really really lovely sushi place. Order the chef's choice sashimi appetizer, and he'll guide you from there . . . – We adore this place! We sat at the sushi bar and the chef kept picking things out for us and smiling charmingly when we liked them. The salmon, hamachi, saba, and age were all great. We'd never had smelt before, but we liked it. And things we'd never gotten along with, like sea urchin gonads and fried shrimp heads, turned out to be excellent too. The sea urchin was in a small handroll of crispy seaweed and warm rice, and tasted like clams, but less chewy. My plum wine spritzer complemented all the sushi flavors, and featured a real pickled plum. The age dashi tofy was yummy (but when is age dashi tofu not yummy?). And the sweet potato dessert with red bean paste was genuinely interesting. The decor is simple & relaxing: harvest colors that become warmer as you move towards the kitchen.
We're from Portland, where our favorite sushi place is Masu East, which we think is very pretty, and also has an awesome head sushi chef. This place isn't as fancy-minimalist, and its rolls & drinks aren't as baroquely complex, but the food is about that good.

Chris Bosh returns after flu, plans to play on Christmas against Thunder
Chris Bosh returned to practice on Monday and plans to play on Tuesday in the Heat's Christmas Day matchup against the Thunder, reports Ethan J. Skolnick of the Palm Beach Post. Bosh missed Saturday's 105-89 victory against the Jazz due to the flu but told the South Florida Sun Sentinel that he had been looking forward to Tuesday's game:
"I was really thinking how exciting it would be to play on Christmas," he said. "It's always a buzz, national TV….You know everybody is sitting down full, to watch you play. I know I did."
Saturday's game was the first Bosh missed all season. He is averaging 18 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game. He'll be sporting Christmas shoes for the game and is expected to be close to 100 percent:

They also have facilities for meetings (we've rented rooms for staff meetings, and I've been to a wedding reception there).
The aquarium has a tunnel that allows you to walk underneath the sharks. There is also a manatee pool. If you're there at 12:30 p.m. they will feed the manatees and the divers get into the pool to play with them.
In the rainforest there is a free-flight aviary with tropical birds, and the path goes high up in the tree canopy so you can see them close-up. Also there is a monkey island.

Sharks, alligators, fish from every corner of the world, penguins--they have it all at the Dallas World Aquarium. The aquarium is divided into four major areas: Aquarium, Rainforest, Mundo Maya, and South Africa. Each of these four sections are separate from each other. As you walk through the different sections you will realize the intricate planning and designing that must have taken place to really make you feel that you have been transported to the particular ecosystem you are surrounded by.
The Aquarium section is a room divided into multiple smaller aquariums, each containing fish from a different region of the world. They include fish from just about every corner of the world. This section is located on the bottom floor with water surrounding you so you feel as though you are actually submerged hundreds of feet below the ocean. In this room of multiple aquariums, you will be able to stare forever at some of the bright and flourescent colored creatures swimming around.
Another exhibit of the aquarium is the rainforest. The rainforest is a huge three-story room taking you through a simulation of the different canopy levels in a rainforest and the animals that live in each canopy. You will really feel part of the rainforest as you walk along the wooden pathways surrounded by enormous green trees, bushes, birds whizzing around, and the bond pelow containing manatees, sting rays, etc.
The South African exhibit is located outside and houses the penguins. Penguins don't need much explanation, they be fun to watch no matter what the exhibit looks like. The Central American habitats are portrayed Mundo Maya section. Highlights of Mundo Maya inlcude jaguras, snakes, and crocodiles. Mundo Maya is organized like the rainforest with three levels. Each level contains animals that you would find in that particular environment. All the habitats are real and authentic, with my favorite being the rainforest, where you actually feel like you are walking through South America. Another high point is that they have all kinds of animals, not just fish.
Although a little pricey, it is definitely worth a visit. It will take around 2-4 hours to walk through all the exhibits. They also have a movie theatre with documentaries on various animals that last about 30 minutes each. It is easily accessible from the major freeways. The website has directions from just about anywhere: http://www.dwazoo.com/directions.html.

The next section had aquariums representing various parts of the world: Japan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Fiji, Palau, Southern Australia, Solomon Islands, etc. Next to the Aquarium there was a touch-screen computer if you wanted to learn about the inhabitants of that tank. At 12:00 we attended the feeding of the South African Penguins at Cape of Good Hope. The Black-footed penguins were tiny and liked it hot. The temperature of Dallas was ideal for them.
We were very disappointed on the size of the Aquarium until we discovered that stairs from the River exhibit led to other levels. The Understory level and canopy level had many different exotic animals and plants. At the Understory level you could see the top of the River exhibit and there was a small Monkey Island in the middle. Pale-faced Sakis, Emperor Tamarins, Black-necked Swans and others lived around this island. A walkway took us through various exhibits of eel. frogs, crocodiles, bats, and snakes. The walkway made circles and took us to the Canopy level where we say Red Howler monkeys, otters, and various birds. My favorite was the toucans. I had previously seen in nature howler monkeys in Costa Rica, but although we tried very hard we weren't able to see any toucans. Of course seeing the exotic animals in a zoo or aquarium is not the same as seeing in nature but it is the second best thing.
It is a nice place to bring your kids, they will love it and you can make a half-day visit. The Dallas World Aquarium and Zoological Gardens also has two places to eat: The Jungle Cafe at the Canopy level and eighteen-O-one restaurant at the Aquatic level.

With rail transportation significantly improved in Dallas, visiting this place is much easier and less expensive than in the past. It's cheaper to ride DART than to pay for parking! Match this up with a restaurant visit on the West End and have a fine time!

Here's how RW members rated this race (217 votes).
In short: Enjoyed the race day :)In full: Was slightly concerned with the hills on this one, but experienced runners are not going to do this for PBs. This out and back course was trickier in the first half than the second I felt. Once I worked out the initial downhill wasnt going to be encountered going back, it made it easier to finish. Also finding someone to run with for the second half kept the focus on.Negative bits... few toilets. And I'm thinking they might want to have a word with the local constabulary to help out. Couple of impatient drivers were putting some runners off their stride at crossing points.However, there are lots of plus points on this one. Its friendly both participants and marshals. Good organised parking. The organisers seem proud of their event which is good because that means they care. The views are good; the route is a bit traily which makes it interesting. Energy gels on route for those who wanted them. Goody bag ok, esp if you like beer. No medal but technical t-shirt with great design. Fantastic to see a massage section on donations - I tend to pay the same either way, but its appreciated to see so many of them give up their sundays to help out.I can see myself doing this again as a challenge rather than a race.Date of review: September 6, 2010
Date of review: September 6, 2010
In short: Thank you for a spectacular eventIn full: A very well organised race with encouraging marshalls around a truly beautiful area. The national anthem at the start got everyone in the mood for the race, and despite a few hills i managed to get a PB.Will defintely be doing this next year. A big thank you to the organisers.Date of review: September 6, 2010
In short: Beautiful day for a scenic run. Great start (national anthem sung), great course and loved the beer at the end.Date of review: September 6, 2010
In short: A superb race brilliantly organisedIn full: This was only my first running of this race but I'll be back for sure. Shaving 10 secs off the PB in a crazy dash across the field at the end capped a great run with terrific scenery, perfect weather for running and near-faultless organisation. The enthusiasm from the marshalls really kept me going and it was good to see so many familiar and friendly faces on course as I struggled around.Date of review: September 6, 2010
In short: Great scenary - very hilly hills!Date of review: September 6, 2010
In full: I really enjoyed this event from the start the novelty of everyone singing The National Anthem before setting off really gave us motivation.I have done lots of half marathons regularly using my Garmen and to my horror realised today I had forgotten it but I think it turned out the best thing.It has been a long time since I could say I really enjoyed a race.The scenery was spectacular lovely views and it was lovely running through the coolness of the woods.I managed to fall over twice the second one a bit more spectacular than the first so have a few grazes and ache a bit today I think I must have got tired but despite this it was just such a great race.I ended up one minute 8 seconds over the two hour mark but didn't care the feeling of achievement was great.Loved the goodies at the end great T shirt and my husband loved the beer can't wait for next year.Date of review: September 6, 2010
In short: v. good race. do it againDate of review: September 5, 2010
In short: Good funIn full: Good to have a 9am start - over and done with nice and early with the rest of the day to recover. The hills were a bit bigger than I expected but the event was well organised & a lot of fun. Date of review: September 5, 2010
In short: Prepare for the hills. What goes up must come down!!In full: My 2nd Badger half, and tougher than I remember from last year!! I was fitter then which is probably why.The race is fantastic, loved it all the way up and back down ;-)Organisation was really good, just one more marshal towards the end would have been good as a few people seemed to miss the entrance to the pathway. But in truth that was the most minor of grips in an otherwise flawless race (cant believe I have even bothered to type about the that small negative).Do this race next year, its fantastice!!Date of review: September 5, 2010

City of El Paso Department of Public Health held an open house on Wednesday, December 19, 2007 to celebrate the new Rawlings Dental Clinic that was made possible with Community Development Block Grant funds in the amount of $777,223 and City Bond money in the amount of $246,009 for a total project cost of $1,023,232.

*It's been a decade since the American Dental Association convened its annual meeting in Honolulu. Back in 1989, there was no convention center. "We put a convention center roof over Waikiki," chuckles James H. Sweeney, group associate executive director, business, technical, and meetings services.
Taking a brief break from his myriad duties during the ADA's October convention, Sweeney reminisced about when the ADA had to build outdoor, tented areas and take over every meeting room and hotel lobby in the city in order to accommodate its annual meeting. Needless to say, revenues that year went down.
This time around, Honolulu was ready. Drawing 32,000 attendees and 750 exhibiting companies, the ADA's convention was the largest the new facility had hosted. And it handled the challenge with ease, according to Sweeney.
The Hawaii Convention Center, which opened in July 1998, sports 200,000 square feet of exhibit space, 49 meeting rooms, and a 36,000-square-foot ballroom.
Equipped with satellite videoconferencing capability, fiberoptic cable for high-speed Internet access, and category 5 pair cabling for efficient in-building telecommunications, the center is wired to accommodate the technological needs of today's conventions.
Graced with a rooftop garden, a 70-foot waterfall, coconut palms, and lava rock formations, the center reflects Hawaii's tropical ambience, while artwork highlights the region's fascinating, multicultural history.
Many of the participating hotels hosted ADA events, including the 800-room Ilikai Hotel/Hotel Nikko Waikiki, which offers 25,000 square feet of meeting space, and the 1,240-room Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island, which provides 50,000 square feet of indoor and 100,000 square feet of outdoor meeting space.
Although in the past planners have been concerned about Hawaii's image as a resort junket destination, those concerns should now be put to rest, according to James Youngblood, vice president, meetings, publishing, and science resources, American Heart Association. With increasing globalization, it becomes more important for associations to attract attendees from the Pacific Rim and Japan. "You can justify Hawaii on that alone," he said.
Other groups booked at the convention center include the National Medical Association, the Pacific Basin Economic Council, Lions Club International, and most major meeting industry associations, including the Professional Convention Management Association and Meeting Professionals International.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -- Two people drive through the Rocky Mountains. One looks out the window and breathes "Oh, wow" approximately every five seconds. The other is glued to the steering wheel with a view of … the road. Take your eyes off the road in the mountains, and you're off the road.
The solution? The train. Everybody gets to look out the window, and nobody has to worry about driving. My husband and I took Amtrak from Denver to Grand Junction for just that reason.
It's about an eight-hour trip, give or take (because trains share tracks, so things don't always run on time). You can drive the distance in 4 1/2 hours.
The fare on Amtrak's California Zephyr is between $61 and $95 each way, depending on the days of the week you travel — Fridays cost $95, for example — so the round trip will cost between $122 and $190 each. And you'll need to rent a car in Grand Junction, although doing so is less expensive and exasperating than at Denver International Airport.
Bottom line: Don't take the train because it's cheap and fast, because it's not. Do it because it's a relaxing way to get across Colorado, with plenty of leg room, great views and no bag fees.
The only complicated part of taking Amtrak is the lack of a seat assignment. You're assigned a car and have to hunt down empty seats. We were aboard with a huge British tour group, so finding seats together was a challenge, but a train employee located good ones for us.
We settled into our roomy seats and gawked through the train's big windows at the evolving scenery as we chugged northwest up into the foothills and then the Rockies, stopping briefly in Fraser and Granby, then southwest through whitewater rafting and slow-water rafting territories, where we saw tons of rafters and received more than one Colorado salute (commonly known as mooning).
We moved through the Upper Gore Mountain Range on west through canyons near Glenwood Springs (the third stop) and, finally, vineyards heralding our arrival in Grand Junction.
Our train had an observation car/lounge car. We found it constantly filled by members of the tour group, but that was OK. The view was just dandy from our own seats. I've heard good things about the dining car food, but the competition to get into it was fairly stiff, so we grabbed a couple of hot dogs from the snack bar and reminded ourselves to bring our own food on the return trip.
Conductors and other train workers were uniformly jolly and helpful. They made frequent announcements about key sights, upcoming tunnels and such.
Our train was half an hour late arriving in Grand Junction, but 15 minutes early on the return trip to Denver.
One last important note: While Denver's Union Station is under renovation until sometime in 2014, Amtrak is based on 21st Street just west of Coors Field in what used to be a light bulb store. The Grand Junction-Denver train gets in around 6:30 p.m., and a handful of cabs will be there, awaiting your arrival.

Comments On Jun 07, 2010:This has to be the worst fitting plastic I have ever purchased. It is flimsy the plastic is duller than my stock plastic. It does not fit like the stock plastic at all. There is a 1/4" gap all the way around the piece and it does not even fit center on the bike.

Hey there, busy people! I'm Allyssa, nice to meet you all.
Can you believe its already Thanksgiving week? I can't. I also can't believe that all of a sudden its time to study for finals! I've got so many projects looming on the horizon, ones that my sad, procrastinating ways thought I could wait just a little… bit… longer… to work on. But that is not the way of school, so here I
am working my butt off as I try to get things done on time. As much work as it is though, I've got to say that I love most of the classes I signed up for this semester. It's always a lot of work, after all, but the classes don't always feel worth it.
But not this time around! When I was building my schedule, I knew that I already had most of my requirements for my A.A. and for the most part, I would be taking classes that would either go towards my future degree or towards me. Seeing as I didn't know my future degree at the time, I went ahead and went with me and boy, I do not regret it one bit! All my life I have enjoyed writing. Granted, I'm sporadic, I rarely finish my projects, and I know I don't do enough research for really intense stories. But still, it's a good idea to take classes in subjects I'm interested in, ones I could incorporate into my stories to give them more depth, character and relatability (not actually a word, but you get my point). The one class I didn't take for these reasons is the one class I really regret signing up for. Oh well! My point is, even though I've got all this work to do, its so worth it.
Don't let stress get you down! You're about to have a fabulous holiday!

In an effort to provide transparency and education in energy reduction efforts at Ohio University, the former program called "Residence Challenge" has transitioned to a multi-tier energy education program. These programs are made possible through funding from the Sugarbush Foundation and support from Corporation for Ohio Appalachian Development.
Co-Curricular Energy Efficiency Education
Office of Sustainability staff will collaborate with COAD to offer hands-on workshops that provide students, faculty, staff and community members with the skills and knowledge necessary to implement energy conservation and weatherization behaviors in their own homes.
COAD Workshops will be focused on rental homes so as to gather more interest from off-campus OU students and offer them energy saving resources. It is anticipated that workshops will focus on the following:
Energy Education in the Classroom
Energy Challenge
Office of Sustainability will honor OU's former "Resident Challenge" program and encourage increased sub-metering on campus by creating innovative energy challenge programs throughout the academic year. These challenge programs will work to garner interest from all faculty, staff and students at Ohio University, with an emphasis placed on residential housing units.

There's a lot of different boiler designs...it sounds like yours has fairly high mass and isn't designed for cold starts (i.e., it maintains a set heat band whenever on). The newest, low-mass boilers are generally designed to shut down when there's no call for heat. Mine, for example, in the summer often only runs once a day after the morning showers, then cools off and often reaches ambient temps before it needs to turn on again.
There's a tradeoff between response, longevity, and reliability for the settings. Many older boilers cannot handle low, condensing, return water temps. So, to keep them from self-destructing, you have to maintain some minimum temperature, often in the 140-degree range or so. You could reduce the low-temp setting during the non-heating season, and may also be able to reduce the upper bound. Most gas-fired WH are not all that efficient - your boiler is generally better. You are taking a hit if it is trying to maintain heating season temperatures during the summer, though.
To maintain the same hot water supply, you'd need a bigger tank if you go direct fired...indirects take advantage of the entire boiler's heat capacity and can recover much quicker so they generally are smaller. You may find that alone a consideration for your small space. Also, you have to consider the additional flue - you may not be able to connect the new WH's flue into the boiler's. Indirects come in at least a couple of different designs: jacketed and coils. Either can develop leaks. There are some, though, that have very long warranties. Mine is a SuperStor Ultra, mostly SS, and I expect it to last a very long time.
One of the pros will be familiar with that model and be best able to offer some practical suggestions, but my gut feeling is that another indirect may be the better long-term choice, especially if you eventually consider a new, more efficient, low-mass boiler in the future as well.

Philadelphia police are investigating a series of shootings that happened all within about an hour of each other.
The first happened just before midnight in Kensington when a man was shot in the leg. This was
in the area of Allegheny Avenue and G Street. He's listed in stable
condition at Temple University Hospital.
Around the same time, a 24-year-old woman was shot in the back while on her way home from work. This happened around midnight on the 700 block of 13th Street in South Philadelphia. She's in stable condition.
And around 1 a.m., there was a double shooting in Juniata. Police say two 24-year-old men were shot during a robbery on the 2000 block of Castor Avenue.
One was shot in the leg, while the other died at the hospital.
The shootings come not even a day after President Barack Obama named Philadelphia's own Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey to a team aimed to prevent gun violence.
In this video report, FOX 29's Steve Keeley has more details on a two-day Philadelphia anti-crime summit that Ramsey addressed on Wednesday and which continues today.

Where: Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa.
Line: Alabama by 28.
Radio: 95.5 FM
Four-down territory
1. Finish early: Tennessee is extremely confident coming off a 23-21 victory over South Carolina. The Vols also played well the week before against Georgia. If Alabama lets Tennessee hang around, the Vols have shown they have the ability to steal a win.
2. Stop the run: The Volunteers have a strong running game led by tailback Rajion Neal, who has rushed for 693 yards and eight touchdowns and averages 99 yards a game. This will be the Tide's second straight opponent that likes to use a power running game. The Vols' massive offensive line does a good job of creating holes for its running backs.
3. Stay for four: Tide coach Nick Saban spoke out against fans and students leaving games early. Saban wants the fans to stay for 60 minutes because the players have to play for 60 minutes. He said it makes the organization look bad to recruits when the stands are empty. It will be interesting to see how the fans respond to Saban's admonishment. If this game gets out of hand, will fans stick around and continue to be loud? Or will they exit early like they have for every other blowout this season? Saban has spoken. Question is, will the fans listen?
4. Avoid injuries: Alabama is just one game away from its bye week before another showdown with LSU. The last thing the Tide wants is an injury to a key player, so this will be another opportunity to get the game over early and get the starters some rest, especially the guys who have nagging injuries.
Key matchup
Alabama's defensive line vs. Tennessee offensive line: Tennessee has a massive offensive line and loves to pound away with the running game. The Vols average 202 rushing yards a game while Alabama only allows 98 yards a game. It will be a test of wills. It will be important for Alabama's defensive line to get some push up front, particularly in the middle, to slow the Vols' ground game. If Alabama can make Tennessee one dimensional, it will be a long day for the Vols.
Tennessee has been a hot team for the past two weeks, but the Vols aren't in the same class as Alabama. The Crimson Tide has hit its stride and is playing its best football of the season. Expect another easy victory in this rivalry for the Tide. ... Alabama 41, Tennessee 13.

Top 5 Benefits of Being a Work-at-Home Mom
I am a work-at-home mom. I freelance my writing services for a living, wash the dishes, do the laundry and feed the baby at the same time. Sounds like too much of a juggle? I don't think so.
It is true that being a work-at-home mom poses a lot of challenges, and so do traditional jobs. The only difference is that being a work-at-home mom allows you to still be able to keep a career for yourself while being able to spend quality time with your family. This spells out F-U-L-L-F-I-L-L-M-E-N-T for me. There's no other kind of work that would allow me to grow professionally while watching my 11-month old baby turn into a charming toddler. And for those who'd rather keep arguing about the challenges of being a WAHM, let me tell you: No pain, no gain! I was a call center agent before and I used to be a sounding board to irate callers. If you aren't willing to sweat your way to have a good income, there's no way you are going to get any. I am a work-at-home mom now, and I earn way better than what I earn when I was still working for others. The work is equally challenging, but I get to enjoy the following benefits;
I get to manage my own business
They say that the only way to gain financial independence is to set up your own business. This proved true in my case. Working on traditional jobs comes with investments: transportation, food and clothing allowance. As a work-at-home mom, I am able to work without all these. My desk is just within my room, I get to eat what my family eats (which is within the family budget) and I get to work even if I am still in my pajamas! Now, most of the expenses that used to burden me when I was still working outside home are already well-spent on fun family outings, business investments and/or allotted to family savings.
I treat working from home as working on my own business so there are still times when I don't get to work in my pajamas. I still occasionally wear the 'dreaded' corporate attire when speaking to clients personally or on Skype. I also invest on it, but I get to keep my investment just like my laptop which allows me to work on café's and out-of-town sans worries of losing business because of unreturned e-mails.
With it as a business of my own, I am able to maximize every earning/savings opportunity that it has provided me with. I am also able to plot my own goals for my own business. The flexibility allowed me to be the best that I can be sans the boss asking me to work harder for a paycheck that's not even worth it. As a work-at-home mom, I am working smarter to keep my business growing so I can be financially independent very soon.
I get to choose my clients
When working on traditional jobs, choosing a boss is not an option. You have to work with an 'ancient dinosaur' whether you like it or not. As a work-at-home mom, I am able to classify prospect clients as either bad or good. Of course, I only work with the good ones.
The good ones aren't difficult to find. There are more good ones than bad in the market because the marketplace is literally crowded with professional and business- minded people who are also working smarter to grow their own businesses. In addition, work-at-home people are a lot cheaper to work with than regular employees, so if you are good at what you do, you can expect to attract good clients too.
I get to choose my projects
I prefer to work on writing projects on topics of working from home and freelancing— and I am able to observe this preference when applying for new projects. With a market as wide as the world, you are definitely going to find work that suits your taste and passion. Not to mention finding work that pays you your worth.
I get to choose my work hours
I am a night person. My brain seems to be most efficient at night. Therefore, 9AM-5PM work is simply not for me. As a work-at-home mom, I get to work on my preferred hours without hurting my timecard with absences and lates.
I get to see my family grow as I do all these
Now, the best thing about working from home is the ability to grow my own business while seeing my family grow at the same time. Life is short to spend most days at work, but you can't earn a living unless you work. I feel so blessed to have a skill that I am able to market online. It allowed me to pursue a passion, earn a living and take care of my family without having to send my baby to day care when I work. Sure, it is challenging, but it is all worth it.
How about you? Are you a work-at-home mom, too? Or are you looking to be a work-at-home mom soon? With time management and strong desire to grow, working from home can be the best career decision that you can ever make. Leave your tips and questions as comments below.
